WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON. April 18th, 1ss

WASHINGTON, April 25th, 1887.
The present is one of the dullest
news seasons known in Washington,
and reporters have in their despera-
ton worked the canacd of the Presi-
dents alleged too soon declinatlon
of a second nomination for all it is
worth. 1t is now known that the
story has no basis in fact. The
President did not tell the Western
Senator, Vest, that he would not
accept second nomination or any
thing of that kind. He has frequent
ly said in a jocular way to Senators
and Members who were pursuing
him with petitions for appointments:
" Well, am quite willing for you
fellows to try this business and
manage it better if you can. You
shall have my support and unique
vote for the presidency" 1t is well
known that number of Democratic
Members and Senators are opposed
to a second term for Mr.. Cleveland
and it is certain that Senator Vest
was expressing his own wishes
rather than the expressed determin
alton of Mr.. Cleveland when in a
convivial frame of mind at an up
town restaurant, he talked upon the
subject of second term and sound.
ed the key note to what has swelled
through newspaper exaggeratiou
into grand overture.
tits evident that the music did
not please Mr.. Cleveland, for he
FASTENED through his alter ego,
Colonel Lamont, to repudiate the
motif, and in doing this, he has been
betrayed into a maladroit bid for "a
second nomination. No one who
has followed the history of the pres
emit administration can be of other
opinion than that Mr.. Cleveland is
working with political shrewdness
for the Democratic and Mugwump
nomination of 1888. That he will
get the Democratic nomination is
possible, but it is very doubtful if he
can hold on to the Mugwump con-
tingent. There are very recent
signs of detection among his staunch
and powerful supporters of the
literary Mugwumpian persuasion.
There Is renewal of talk of an
extra session, which it is now thought
will be called in October. The sur
plus in the Treasury increases con.
tinuously at the rate of S1O,0O0,0O0
per month. 1t is realized that some
thing must be done to arrest this
drain upon the circulation of the
country. The extra session should
have been called Immediately after
the fourth of March, and it is urged
by some that if the country can
endure the strain until the first of
October it can continue two months
longer until the time OF the regular
session. But nearly a month will
necessarily be taken in the election
of speaker, the organization of
committees and the other prelimi-
naries to the real work of Legisla.
ton. If Congress does not assemble
until the first Monday in December
the Christmas holidays will seriously
interrupt the first month of the
session two months will intervene
before Congress can mature and
pass needed revenue legislation,
and by this time Congress and the
country will be so disturbed by the
approaching presidential campaign
that politics will stifle statesman
ship and no revenue bill Will be
passed.

LINGERING !!

The special session of the West
Va. Legislature is lingering in its
last agonies, and can neither live
nor die right. Designating the
special purposes for which it was
called together, it wastes time
wantonly over other business than
that which it should transact. Dis
cussing rules, investigating bribery
charges, political fencing, defining
State and Federal Constitutions in
their bearings upon Senatorial

but it is not LEGIsLATING, and that
is what the people send their dele
gates there for and for that the
State is taxed to pay them. We
say this for Democrat and Republi.
can alike, for it seems to US mere
child's play, and we believe the tax
payers of all parties look at it in the
same way, and are ashamed of the
whole farce. In justice we must
add, that the Democrats have a
working majority in both house, and
if they don't work it is their own
fault, for the Republicans can't
The Hamilton House resolution to
begin balloting for q. S. Senator
May Sd, was defeated. This makes
the adjournment of the Legislature
likely at any day. West Va. has

some one-horse politicians can't be
famous they'll be Infamous. 1t is a
sorry day for the taxpayers when
they send a monopoly hireling to
represent them.

steele Fonud Chilly.

The case of the State of Kansas
against Isaac Steele, charged with
shooting Theodore Beers, on the John
Cook ranch, last May, was tried by a
jury in the district court this week,
and resulted in verdict OF guilty of
felonious assault. The verdict was
surprise to nearly every one acquainted
with the circumstances of the case,
as there are few persons who believe
that Steele went to the Cook ranch for
the purpose of shooting Beers. The
two men had not been friends fer
quite while before, and busy-bodies
had famed the flame by carrying tales
Steele had occasion to visit the ranch
and he went armed. Beers met him
about one hundred feet from the house
and showed a disposition to fight.
Steele warned him off and then pulled
revolver and fired twlce--one shot
hitting Beers in the back, near tie
shoulder and the other shot taking eff
feet in his legs. Beers recovered from
his wounds, though his right arm is
partially paralized.
An arrest of judgment and a new
trial has been asked for. 1t appears
that the jury took with them the
''bloody shirt" that Beers wore, and
this was not permissible.
The punishment for felonious az.
ssult may be six months in Jail as the
minimum or five years Imprisonment II

A Railroad Southwest.

Medicine Lodge is in position now
to offer any reliable railroad company
practicable and desirable route from
this city southwest through the county.
The board of trade secured the services
OF two civil engineers, County Surveyor
f. w. Hill and his deputy, ID. J. Aber,
who last week completed the survey of
line from the mouth of Cedar creek,
west of this city. along that stream
southwest to the Lockard place, 20
miles from here. This route goes over
the country about which there has here
tofore been some doubt expressed, some
persons claiming that road could not
get an outlet from here southwest.
The profile submitted to the board by
Hill Il Aber shows an easy route, with
no angles, and better grade than was
ever anticipated. The heaviest grade
will occur in reaching the top of the di-
vide, on sections Is and Is, in township
SO, range II, and this grade can be
worked down under 60 feet to the mile.
The balance of the route is easy, much
better than the average road built
through this country, and the people
along the route have already expressed
a most liberal disposition in the matter
of right-of-way.
This survey was made with the idea
that if the townships west of here are
not inclined to vote aid to the Kansas
and Panhandle road, it will not be pre-
vented from getting an outlet from this
city. 1t was made with the further
idea that in the event of the Kansas
and Panhandle road failing to keep its
promises, that we could offer some 9th.
er road good route to this city from
the north or northeast, and from here
southwest.
The profile is the property of the
board of trade, and we believe that body
can be trusted to make judicious use of
